I have just got my gt5 game out of the drawer after a long break. I was having problems during races the screen would go black but the race was still going. When the picture came back I would find myself crashed into a wall of off the track ( not fun and very fustrating ). When I put the disc in yesterday it prompted me to update in which I agreed. 1 of 15 came up on the screen and a progress bar and a message stating that the upgrades required 4000 some odd meg of hd space. I agreed and left it run over night in which it took from aprox midnight until 8am to complete. I finally got a chance to race only to find the same black screen crash into wall problem. HELP!!! What can I do?

I have changed my resolution from 1080 to 720. The game now runs without going black. Seems a waste of resolution only being able to run on the lower setting, but I am just happy to be driving again. Thanks heaps timmy6321.

I don't have the problem with any other game. I have my PS3 running on my 50 inch Samsung HD plasmaTV. I just use the auto resolution. I have not tried to select a lower resolution. Do you think that may be the problem? If so what res should I select?
